Carol asks…
See my living room..any ideas for decorating?
Here is a pic of my living room in my new apartment
http://picasaweb.google.com/preetha.raghu/MyNewApartment
I have like 8 photo frames of a mixture of 10X13 & 8X10 (not matted & fancy just different kinds from cheap stores).
How should I display them (if at all)..like all one the same wall or split up? They are all my baby girl's professional pics.
Also any other ideas for the room? Thanks!!
This is a rented apartment..I dont want to paint or remodel as I might be here just a yr.
If I put them up all one one wall, wont the other wall look empty?

Your room has lots of potential. You might try some accents with a color, maybe the blue like in the rug. Pillows for the couch, a throw, some kind of curtains for the window, plants, maybe another lamp or two. The window treatment could be a simple scarf draped on a few small hooks. The photos of your baby would look good all together on either of the big walls. If the frames are different colors, you could paint them to tie them all together. For some art for the other walls, check out things you may already have. Several placemats in a texture or a pretty (inexpensive) rug can be hung on the wall and are big enough to "fill" the space.

Go to allposters.com they have everything and everyone at really low prices.but to achieve the look in the picture just string some fishing line cascading it every couple of feet and buy those tiny clips at staples and hang your stuff on it.easy and inexpensive

Ideas for Decorating a Teenage Girl's Bedroom?
Ever since I was young, the life of Marie Antoinette has always intrigued me. After the film Marie Antoinette directed by Sofia Copolla, it became one of my favorite films. I know it's not exactly historically accurate, but the movie is just visually stunning- from the costumes, to the interiors of Versailles, everything was like candy for the eyes. Especially the floral prints, flowers, ribbons, jewels, and pastries.
After seeing this ad for the perfume Miss Dior Cherie, I knew it looked familiar, and I also knew that I really liked the style of it. Here it is:
http://www.la-story.com/upload/2009/03/new_miss_dior_cherie_leau_fragrance_commercial_dir/missdior2balloons.jpg
After the commercial for said perfume was released, I found out that Sofia Copolla directed it. It demonstrates Copolla's love for bright pastels like hot pink, and softer shades like baby blues, mint greens, and light yellows. Pastries and flowers are also present, and so are pretty pastel balloons. Check it out:

Anyways, I would really like to decorate my room with bright pastels, and pretty furniture, but I'd like to know some places where I could find Marie Antoinette-esque fabrics (large florals that DON'T look grandma-ish), accesories, and some ideas for what should go into my bedroom. So far I've got this:
-Brass headboard
-White wall shelves ( for books and a couple knick-knacks)
-Poofy white comforter and sheets
-Pine dresser, and nightstand (think I should ask my parents about painting them white?)
-White plastic bins for storage (how can I make them a little less modern-looking?)
-And some other little things that aren't worth listing.
For the walls I'm planning on doing a very soft bluish-green hue sort of like the color on the walls of this scene (NOTE: This is the scene that really made me decide that I wanted to decorate my room like so; so keep that in mind! Also not the floral of the curtians. THAT is the floral that I would like to see in my room.):

Or I'd like to paint the room in a soft yellow tone, like the color of the dress and flowers (on the hat) worn by the auburn-haired woman closest to the person viewing the photo:

I'm leaning towards the blue. Your thoughts?
So what I'm asking is for is pictures of and places where I can get colorful Sofia Copolla-inspired accesories and pretty rooms essentials that are reminiscent of what I've showed you. Also, tell me what you think I should do to decorate my room. Thank you! P.S. Links and photos are greatly appreciated!

Mandy asks…
I need some creative ideas for decorating my plain bedroom walls?
im a 13 year old girl and my room right now is baby baby blue and i have light oak furniture. i cant paint the walls cause its already been painted from dark green to baby baby blue (the colour it is now).On my walls I only have a mirror, a pinboard,a clock,my school photos and a picture of me and my mum dad and brother, what else could make it a bit nicer? Im really girly so I was thinking fairy lights = ]
admin answers:
Hey I'm 13 too :D
What is good for our age right now is lime green! Lime green brights up a room and goes well with oak furniture. Since you say you are so girly I might even do 2 walls lime green and 2 walls pink. Are you planning on getting a new bedspread? Usualy you want to start with that first and pick a wall color to match. What is also in is wall decals. Dali's decals is a great place to get them- http://dalidecals.com/ They have many inexpensive decals that will live up a room. A great idea is to get a white one and put it on the lime gree wall. Balck decals cane go on lime green or pink.
Hope this helps!
